Abstract:Understanding the end-use of water is essential to a plethora of critical research in premise plumbing. However, direct access to end-use data through physical sensors is prohibitively expensive for most researchers, building owners, operators, and practitioners. Therefore, machine learning models can alleviate these costs by predicting downstream end-use events (e.g., sink, shower, dishwasher, and washing machine) via an affordable subset of upstream sensors. Choosing which upstream sensors, as well as data p… Show more
“…There have been a growing amount of research exploring the use of ML based techniques for predicting THMs. [51][52][53][54][55][56][57] Most of the research uses some type of artificial neural network (ANN) based model to develop non-linear relationships between water quality variables and THM concentration. The ML based approaches show promise by demonstrating lower error compared to their multiple linear regression based model counterparts.…”
Research and practice suggest markers of drinking water quality such as trihalomethanes (THM), can change during treatment and distribution, potentially elevating health risk of end users. Models have been developed...

scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
